I like to show people how to do this rather than trying to type it, but I'll try. Just take a bearing half and set it on the crank, usually you have to push it down before it's free on the crank. If it a little tight lay the shell on the bench upside down and take a rubber hammer hit the shell to spread it a little, when you get it set on the crank and it turns easy I then take mic or a calaiper rule will work and measure across the outside of the shell by the parting line. It should measure the same as the housing bore of the rod or a whisker smaller. I'm trying to remember the housing bore size but I'm in the house with first cup of coffee, I'm thinking 2.120. I could go out in the shop and check but it's snowing and cold and I'm snug as a bug in rug in the house. After you've done a couple you'll see there is nothing to it. I've seen people say that they took all day to fit them. You can do the whole set in 10 min. once you quite being scared. Walt
